How Do I Pay My Court Summons?

If the Police Department cites you for an offense, they will issue a ticket to you.

You may pay the violation online, or by signing the waiver on the bottom portion of your ticket and sending a check to the Court.

If you would like to contest your violation you have the right to do so by appearing at your arraignment in Municipal Court. The arraignment date is specified on your summons and complaint violation form. Your right to have your day in court is protected by the U.S. Constitution.

If you are issued a summons and complaint citation the arraignment date is assigned by the police officer. On that arraignment date, you will appear before the Judge and plead your case. To find out what happens on your day in court please see the information found on the What to Expect page.

Where Can I Go to Get My Fingerprints Taken

Effective September 24, 2018, all Colorado Law Enforcement agencies, including the Greenwood Village Police Department will no longer provide fingerprint services for employment purposes.

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has mandated that all fingerprints are electronically completed by a CBI-approved vendor.
